Greece vs Denmark Prediction: Odds, Tips & Tactical Analysis for 2025

The stage is set for a pivotal World Cup - Qualification Europe Group C encounter as Greece welcomes Denmark to the Karaiskakis Stadium in Piraeus on September 8, 2025, at 19:45 GMT. In this Greece vs Denmark prediction, we dive into recent form, tactical setups, head to head history, and betting odds, all to help you make smarter sports betting decisions.

Team Form, Tactics, and Head to Head Insights

Greece enters this fixture brimming with confidence. Their campaign began with a thunderous 5-1 win over Belarus, extending a run of four victories in their last five matches and nine goals in their last two outings. Sitting atop Group C, the Greeks are eager to make a statement and return to the World Cup for the first time since 2014.

Denmark, on the other hand, started with a goalless draw against Scotland. Despite dominating possession, the Danes struggled to create clear-cut chances—a worrying sign given their six-match winless streak away from home. Historically, the head to head record between these two sides is evenly balanced: since 2005, each has one win and one draw in three meetings, with their last competitive match dating back over 15 years. However, Denmark has the edge in overall encounters, with eight wins to Greece’s three in fifteen meetings.

Tactical Breakdown

  • Greece: Under Ivan Jovanović, Greece has adopted a possession-based, attack-minded style. The blend of youth and experience is evident, with quick transitions, direct play down the flanks, and sharp pressing. Vangelis Pavlidis, fresh off his tenth national goal, and Christos Tzolis, with seven international strikes, are key attacking threats. Captain Anastasios Bakasetas orchestrates from midfield, while the defense—anchored by Konstantinos Mavropanos and Kostas Tsimikas—looks solid. Expect a 4-2-3-1 formation, focusing on width and fast breaks.
  • Denmark: Brian Riemer’s men favor a patient, possession-heavy approach, aiming to stretch opponents with short passing. Pierre-Emile Højbjerg is the midfield anchor, while Kasper Dolberg and Mika Biereth are likely to lead the line. With Christian Eriksen absent and Rasmus Hojlund expected to start on the bench, Denmark’s creativity may be tested. The defense, marshaled by Joachim Andersen and Andreas Christensen, will need to be alert to Greece’s direct attacks.

Key Players to Watch

  1. Greece: Vangelis Pavlidis, Christos Tzolis, Anastasios Bakasetas, Konstantinos Tsimikas
  2. Denmark: Pierre-Emile Højbjerg, Kasper Dolberg, Mika Biereth, Kasper Schmeichel

  • On-target shots: Greece 5, Denmark 4
  • Corners: Greece 5, Denmark 6 (total 11)
  • Yellow cards: Greece 1, Denmark 2

Despite Denmark’s higher squad value (€379.55m vs. Greece’s €215.40m), recent form and home advantage tilt the scales towards the Greeks. Notably, Greece’s shock away win over England last October (2-1, odds 12.0) underlines their growing confidence, while Denmark’s recent 1-1 draw with England and away struggles raise questions.

Our Final Greece vs Denmark Prediction & Betting Tips

Taking all factors into account—recent form, tactical setups, and betting odds—our Greece vs Denmark prediction is a home win or draw (1X) as the safest bet, with a strong trust level. For those seeking higher returns, backing Greece outright (1) at 2.43 is a solid option. The under 2.5 goals market is less convincing, given Greece’s recent attacking output.

  • Best bet: 1X (Home win or draw) at 1.37
  • Value bet: Greece to win (1) at 2.43
  • Alternative: Under 2.5 goals at 1.64 (lower confidence)

With both teams eager to stamp their authority in Group C, expect a tightly contested affair where Greece’s momentum and home support could make the difference.
